A Comprehensive Review on Disaster Management Awareness and Preparedness: Leveraging AI Technologies
Abstract
In this world of increasing natural and man-made disasters. The need for comprehensive disaster management solutions has never been more pressing in an era character- ized by an increase in both natural and man-made disasters. The goal of this project is to create a strong application that integrates artificial intelligence to enable authorities and communities to lessen the effects of disasters. Real-time crisis alerts, customized risk assessments, automated data analysis for well-informed decision-making, and chatbots driven by AI for immediate information and assistance, predictive analytics to foresee possible calamities based on past data are some of the key AI capabilities. A better coordinated and effective response to emergencies is made possible by the application’s facilitation of effective communication and collaboration among stakeholders. This initiative aims to transform catastrophe management and create more resilient communities by utilising AI. By integrating advanced AI techniques like machine learning and natural language processing, the application provides a full range of capabilities to improve preparedness, response, and recovery efforts. Furthermore, the application will bridge the gap between the public and disaster management authorities by facilitating effective communication and cooperation during catastrophes and utilising contemporary technology.
